[…] Three Blunders That Can KILL Your Author Platform. Yikes! So it’s not just about building platform, but using specific tools and avoiding others? Oh yes – and author Kristen Lamb is an expert architect. She’s written several books (We Are Not Alone – The Writer’s Guide to Social Media and Are You There Blog? It’s Me, Writer) and does a smart, funny blog on exactly these topics.

Laughed liked a drain when I read this one. Will tweet.
And then go and sit quietly and ponder… but am I one of the “weird, lonely people”??????
=:-O

Thanks for telling us what we need to hear, wrapped up in laughs.

By the way, Jane Friedman was already on my Gold list. How did that lady get so darned smart? You are on my Gold list too, Kristen. Keep it up. 🙂

Just got back from your guest post. Another good one, Shaman, and just the refresher I needed today. I read a post on another blog that put the terror of numbers back in my heart. You’ve allayed that enough I can go watch Breaking Bad in peace…LOL Here’s the link if you want to read it. I’d love to know your thoughts.

I did leave a comment on Jane’s blog but it took me four attempts, it wouldn’t let me log in to wordpress so my photo did not appear.

But great blog, as ever.

Just got back from Jane’s blog and want to thank you for pointing me there.
Joining too many social media sites is disaster in the making because you spread yourself too thin and for what? Quality friends, not quantity is the answer – and doable!
Thanks Kristen.

About to go over to Jane’s and read about the three blunders…looking forward to it!!
By the way, I think you had an excellent idea here, I would have never known about Jane’s blog if you hadn’t mentioned it, and the link made it super easy to click on and read…In my humble opinion, it wasn’t off putting at all:)
Have a happy evening,
Tamara
